Not impressed. Not a good strike rate in a lower league. We need experience. Good luck to him though and I hope he proves me wrong 🔴⚫️
After last season I'd be inclined to agree with you, but if there's going to be an U23 team next season then there'll be a chance for inexperienced players to get some game time rather than sitting on their thumbs
Anyone else surprised we've handed out a two-year deal with an option of a third for someone unproven at this level? Bit of a risk.
Ultimately he could well turn out to be a Jamie Vardy or a complete flop - the gamble with going down in the lower leagues, I guess. To be fair, I think Dulwich have a bit of history in having talented young players come through - Erhun Oztumer at Walsall and Jamal Lowe/Nick Kabamba at Portsmouth are three recent players to have done well at this level and above.

Surely if you're going to take the gamble on young talent you have to do it properly. No point unearthing a hidden gem and having him taken for free next summer by a bigger club...
Director of football comments again. Is Harry a puppet? We can only prosper if a decent scouting system picks up talent. Do we have a decent or any scouts? A lengthy contract is utter madness unless we are paying peanuts
not sure how Kewell would know about this lad so it seems Selim is doing the transfer dealings and Kewell along with Feeney will manage whoever is put in front of them

I get this impression too. I don't think this set up will work, with Selim the director of football and Kewell the hands off manager who barely has the time to manage the players. The director of football model never seems to end well.
I know this is very negative and it's early days, but I already don't like the way this season is shaping up already, the signs are not good.
Isn't our Director of Football actually just doing his job as Director of Football...?
...after all, he got some half-decent talent in last season. Of course he should consult with all interested parties. I would suggest this amounted to a quick chat with the Manager along the lines of "we've got our eye on a young striker we think is worth giving a chance Harry, fancy giving it a go..?" followed by "Jeez Mate, lets stuck the little bugger on the barbie and see if he sizzles"
